Hello
My name is Miran. I am acting in NANURI+, Solidarity for HIV/AIDS Human Rights in Korea.

Korean activists are preparing struggle against all FTA(Korea-US FTA, India-EU FTA, TPPA and so on) on Auguest 27 or 28.

ICAAP 10 will be held in Busan Korea on 25th~30th Auguest.
Will you(or colleagues) participate in ICAAP 10?
We would like to suggest our anti-FTA struggle to activists and PLHIV who will participate in ICAAP 10.
We also want to prepare and communicate about action plan with them.

Japanese people are also trying to stop TPPA and created a petition on WhiteHouse.gov.
We do not have much time left, and we’d be grateful if you could join us.http://wh.gov/jfo

Acturally, we must unite and do someting together against these FTAs.
This time, we did not have enough time to let everybody know about our action, however, we have found several groups of people who can act together.

Please feel free to post information of your action on our facebook page.
Let’s get together and get the world back to us the ordinary people!

What is it all about?

For millions of people in the developing world, access to essential medicines is often a question of life and death. Most of them rely on the affordable generic medicines being produced by countries like India. Backed by the big multinational pharma companies, US, European Union and European Free Trade Association are pushing for aggressive trade policies to restrict the supply and production of the generic medicines. The attack is taking various forms but with a single handed objective: Pushing for TRIPS plus provisions through Free Trade Agreements, international treaties, border measures etc. The impact of such actions could be devastating and result in loss of millions of lives in absence of affordable medicines.

"Dont Trade Our Lives Away" blog provides articles, opinions, documents, news reports, pictures, videos providing an insight on latest international developments that can have a direct impact on access to medicines such as on-going bilateral trade negotiations – India-EU FTA, TPPA and also international treaties like Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement.
